For my fight comments, please place the following words in order:

Monsoon not to be stopped by the spinner and plow into the semis.

NSBFL 7

It€™s heat M final time, people. In the first round, Manic Monsoon went through by default when OrkaMK 3€™s tyres wore down, grounding it, while Agitator damaged the weapons and body of Deep Impact, sending it into the moat. We move through to the Classic arena to see which rare beast moves through. Seed or realie?

3€¦
2€¦
1€¦..
ACTIVATE!!

Agitator backs off and starts to spin up, but Manic Monsoon gets straight under it, being bounced away a little by the cage, but soon turning and slamming under Agitator again! The lifter props Agitator up, and a quick drive forward pushes it onto its back, and it looks like Agitator is in real trouble as Manic Monsoon takes it into the arena wall! The cage starts spinning, but can€™t go on for long as it gets stuck against the arena wall. With no srimech, Agitator is counted out!

Well, that was€¦ Brief. Agitator very agitated. Manic Monsoon storms through to the last sixteen! Mani€¦ Wait, I did this joke last week. Sorry.

HEAT N
ROUND 1
1) Flipping Hell VS Seggy the Third (6)
Ill probably pick the seed to dump the flippah into the Pit. Think Gravity VS Tornado.

2) Insecticide VS THE DOOMSDAY PROJECT
The one of the three tonight Id most like to duel. Doomsday should be able to stand up to the flywheel, so Ill mainly stick to Insecticides sides () and maybe try a 259 (ie use the disc to slice it up and bat it around the arena until it breaks down)
Also, if the worst comes to the worst, Ill just switch the disc off and use my superior drive to shove it down one of the Pits.

Me a seed = Me going out

Classic arena, I will wait until Dave W posts to post my set-up and RP

^700th post in NSBFL 7 ^

I forgot to say: Wooty fights Frank

Flipping Hell vs. Seggy the Third

Flipping Hell:
Flipper
18 mph
Wedge

Seg:
Interchangable weapons
18 mph
Invertible Box

The Segs Weapon of Choice will be the orginal invertible flipping arm, because it is invertible and has a lower wedge than the wedge if you get my point.

My RP will be, We have the same speed, but he has better turning, so Im using the acceleration from Seg to my advantage here and try to get head on, hopefully with luck I should get underneath the front like I did last year against Max and will push towards the arena wall before flipping, Flipping Hell wont go over, but with any luck the flipper wedge will land so that its back end is near the arena wall. With such a powerful flipper Dave cant self-right and stay this side of the fence.

WCS: Flipping Hell getting underneath, in that case full drive forward and drive off the rear taking the aerial with me.

Recap:
1 - Quick Start
2 - Ram into FH, get under
3 - Push to arena wall
4 - Flip over
5 - Push to get in right postion

Got that Franky :-)

Youve been reading the American tournies too much Dave

I have to practise you know.

Not on here... *rolls eyes*

[mrdaves]

NSBFL 7

I know, those tactics will be longer than the fight:

Flipping Hell moves forward, both robots meet, Flipping Hell gets underneath Seg and the flipper opens sending Seg straight into the arena camera

Cease

NSBFL 7

Seggys a box. Flipping Hells a steep wedge. Seggy will not be able to go over the top, so Seggy is gonna get launched. BTW, Ill ask my mate to take a video of the design to show what the relative power is (a 500g 2 pivot flipper can throw another 500g object about 6ft. Translate that into 100kg, and you got some serious flip

[pcbore]

NSBFL 7

Ive seen the picture. I still say it sucks that you lost after throwing your opponant OOTA :P

[razerdave]

NSBFL 7

Say what ?

[pcbore]

NSBFL 7

You showed me a pic of one of your flipper robots hurling its opponant OOTA,in a fight you still managed to lose thanks to the 30-second OOTA rule or something similar.

[razerdave]

NSBFL 7

a: That wasnt a 2 pivot flipper that was throwing out, That was TD, a normal flipper

b: its a minute rule, and I threw it out on 59 seconds :P

c: if you want a pic of the sorta design FH is, just send me an e-mail or contact me on MSN
